An integrated ship area network has functionality of remote control and autonomous management of various sensors and instruments embedded or boarded in a ship. For such environment, an wireless bridge is essential to transmit control and/or managing information to sensors or instruments from a central integrated ship area network station. In this paper, one of reliable schemes of WiMedia based wireless bridge using relay cooperative transmission using WiMedia distributed MAC protocol is proposed to increase a communication reliability between cluster headers, irrespective of channel variation. Simulation results show that the proposed wireless bridge using relay cooperative transmission scheme increases communication reliability.

The production media, partial purification and the enzymatic characteristics of laccase from Pleurotus ostreatus were investigated. Among various media tried the double strength onion media showed much higher production of laccase compared to glucose and/or CMC added media. The laccase from Pleurotus ostreatus has the optimum pH of 5.94 for the activity and appears to be stable at relatively broad pH spectrum (4.7-8.7). The experiments on the temperature stability shows that above 90% activity could be preserved after holding at $30^{\circ}C$ for 40 min., 60% activity was remained after 40 min. at $50^{\circ}C$. The Km value of the laccase from Pleurotus ostreatus was estimated to be 3.209mM and the molecular weight of laccase was estimated to be 55,000 by SDS-Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

This paper represents an efficient algorithm to segment objects from the background using multiple images of distinct luminous intensities. The proposed algorithm obtains images with different luminous intensities using a camera flash. From the multiple intensities for a pixel, a saturated luminous intensity is estimated together with the slope of intensity rate. Then, we measure the sensitivities of pixels from their slopes. The sensitivities show different patterns according to the distances from the light source. Therefore, the proposed algorithm segments near objects using the sensitivity information by minimizing an energy function. Experimental results on various objects show that the proposed algorithm provides accurate results without any user interaction.

As functional requirements of automatic office machines like printers, Automatic Tellex Machines(ATMs), copying machines are on a trend for the higher speed and precision, extensive technical advances are being developed and implemented in the industry. Media transport system is a device to convey a sheet of paper in ATMs and printers. The stability of media transport system is a matter of concern as their operating throughput rapidly increases. And defects of belts or rollers in a transport system directly affect the level of stability of the system. Therefore an automatic diagnostic system for predicting various defects is necessary for the stable operation of the media transport system. A simulation based on multi-body dynamics has been done for a feasibility study of a system design for the defect anticipation.

The present block-based DCT encoder transforms images regardless of layers and then simply partitions the transformed data into a few layers, for example low and high frequency bands in JPEG. Yet, it fails to utilize the similarity of coefficients in each band. Therefore, we combine the subband coder and the block-based DCt coder in this paper. The new coding scheme enables the data to automatically be classified into several layers and increases the efficiency of transform. Various possible coding structures are investigated and the simulation results are also provided.

In this paper, we describe the design, implementation and evaluation for a multimedia conferencing system with intramedia and intermedia synchronization support between audio and video. The synchronization mechanism proposed here is capable of dynamically adapting to various network conditions thus providing an optimized QoS. In realizing the system based on this mechanism, NeVoT on Mbone is used for audio and VIC for video. Furthermore a synchromization controller is designed and realized with a unique process in supporting intermedia synchronization. Each media agents handling its media stream are modified with intramedia synchronization function. And a communicative function between media agents and synchronization controller is added as well for intermedia synchronization function. Each media agents function reports its buffering status to the synchronization control process which in turn send out optimized buffering delay value thus supporting intermedia synchronization. The realized system is configured and tested on Ethernet and ATM network where performance measurements were performed and its effective synchronization support has been assured.

The review discusses various alternative approaches for spent nuclear fuel (SNF) reprocessing in aqueous carbonate media. The main stages, schemes, and methods of the most well-known and well-described processes for reprocessing SNF and some high-level radioactive waste using carbonate systems developed by research groups in Japan, the United States of America, the Republic of Korea, and the Russian Federation described and compared. The main advantages of such methods are outlined compared to the SNF reprocessing in nitric acid media. The levels of development and proximity of the designed processes to the industrial implementation are shown. The main principle achievements, prospects, and routes for the refinement of such methods for the technology of SNF reprocessing and handling of high-level radioactive waste formulated.

Multiple modes of communication on social media can contribute to public diplomacy in informing, conversing, and networking with members of foreign publics. However, manipulative behaviours on social media, prevalent especially in high tension contexts, create disruptions to authentic communication in what could be grey/black propaganda or information warfare. This study reviews existing literature about models of public diplomacy to guide an empirical study of China's communication in the #SouthChinaSea conversation on Twitter. It uses computational methods to identify, record, and analyze one-way, two-way, and network communication of China's actors. It employs manual qualitative research to determine the nature of China's actors. On that basis, it assesses China's Twitter communication in the issue against various models of public diplomacy.

In this paper, we present a two-stage scalable channel estimator (TSCE), a deep learning (DL)-based scalable, and robust channel estimator for wireless cellular networks, which is made up of two DL networks to efficiently support different resource allocation sizes and reference signal configurations. Both networks use the transformer, one of cutting-edge neural network architecture, as a backbone for accurate estimation. For computation-efficient global feature extractions, we propose using window and window averaging-based self-attentions. Our results show that TSCE learns wireless propagation channels correctly and outperforms both traditional estimators and baseline DL-based estimators. Additionally, scalability and robustness evaluations are performed, revealing that TSCE is more robust in various environments than the baseline DL-based estimators.
